Does anyone know when the Armed Forces Pay Review Body reports to Parliament? It get's later and later each year ( though not a major problem as they pay the increase from Apr).
Just get the feeling we will feel the brunt of the economic crisis this government has put us in.

Plenty of discussion of it on Pprune, Arrse etc.

Not really been a topic on here, but 3% or more i hope.

Three % would be great although I fancy it's delayed due to 'people' changing increases by splitting them ie Apr 1.5, sept 1.2% etc.

Nothing like a bit of political interference especially when they are being hauled over the coals for their second home expense claims

To be honest, I'm just thankful I'm in a secure job at the moment the way the rest of the country is suffering. Anything above 0% is a bonus in these harsh times.

Interesting to note that in 2007, the report wasn't published until 1st March. At the time is was considered to be long overdue. I would suggest this be a backstop to work to - so hopefully we will hear something this week.

1 Mar maybe accurate as that is when the revised JSP 752 is being released.

roger_ramjet · 26 February 2009 at 12:27PM

That makes sense. Of course, the announcement could come tomorrow ahead of the revised JSP 752 being published.

Of course, whilst trying to remain optimistic...........Could it be that the pay rise is announced on a day where there are no deaths in Theatre and a "big" story can "bury" it on the national news?

Oh dear, I'm starting to sound cynical!

Very late now - what on earth is going on?

Why not some common courtesy to explain why the report is so late this year!
